NotesCalendarEntry with recurring event

Question

Hello I need to solve my old question XPages search calendar range datetime So I have rewrite my code for use NotesCalendar class and now this code return correctly the events (include the recurring/repeat event)

var startDateTime:NotesDateTime = session.createDateTime(new Date(2016,0,1));
var endDateTime:NotesDateTime = session.createDateTime(new Date(2016,1,1));
var cal:NotesCalendar = session.getCalendar(mailDB);
cal.readRange(startDateTime,endDateTime) //work correctly and return VCAL

but I need to read every Calendar Entries for create my JSON object so I have add this code:

var vect:java.util.Vector=cal.getEntries(startDateTime,endDateTime)
 for(j=0;j<vect.size();j++){
       var cale:NotesCalendarEntry = vect.elementAt(j);
        cale.read(); //this return NULL in recurring Event and work in other case   
       cale.recycle();
    }

This is my VCAL generate from cal.readRange(startDateTime,endDateTime)

If I need to read every recurring events, I think that I need to use the function cale.read("20160131T080000Z") passing the RECURRENCE-ID.

But how can I in NotesCalendarEntry get this parameter my FOR statment?

Thank a lot

P.S. I can use Ical4j Java library I know. is this only solution?
